Due to their relative simplicity, reduced fluid models based on a strong guide field ordering, have proved to be valuable tools for analytical and numerical investigations of phenomena such as turbulence, magnetic reconnection and linear instabilities (see, for instance, Refs. 1-5).
In some cases, such models have been shown to possess, in their non-dissipative limit, a noncanonical Hamiltonian structure (see Ref. 6 for a review). Often associated with such structure is the possibility of casting the fluid evolution equations in a remarkably simple form which, in the two-dimensional limit, reduces to the form of advection equations for appropriate Lagrangian invariants. In this contribution I will show that this feature is part of a more general structure belonging to infinite classes of Hamiltonian reduced hybrid, drift-fluid and gyrofluid models that can be derived from gyrokinetic equations [7-9].References1.
